French Canadian owner of Mercedes AMG models, my own driving experience, i remove run flat tires and install USA replica mag wheel. No more mag bend , flat damage or suspension harsness.Of course like any vehicule you must check tire pressure as per manufacture specs each month. Gerry.

I had a BMW Style 65 replica, made by Thai Alloy Manufacturing (TAM). The also had written "Germany" in them, but NOT "Made in". It took a pretty trained eye the spot the differences for non M-addict. But once I pointed out the differences they were pretty obvious. The rim had the correct dimensions (8*18 ET20) but not the correct CB (needed CB ring to bring it down to to 74.1). Color-shade was more or less spot-on with the correct "shimmering effect". I never used the rim, used it as decoration only, and sold it a few months ago, naturally informing the buyer that is not an original rim.

Those look nice. Mine were quite use looking so I had them restored and they looked better than new. Unfortunately, I am Mr. Rub The Curb. That perfect restoration lasted a season.

Some of the replica wheels are stronger then OEM ones.They are both cast wheels and not forged...

To be exact the replica of the OEM ones is generally low quality. But if you buy aftermarket wheels then yea you are right they have some beautiful forged wheels and they are expensive

I did the same thing. The wheels look amazing and they came mounted and balanced on genuine perrelli tires. I did hit a pot hole and cracked the right front wheel so they will indeed crack. I just bought another single replica and everything was fine. My Benz dealership didn’t even know mine were fakes lol. They tried to sell me an actual AMG replacement when I took the car in for inspection. That was the only way I even knew the wheel was cracked. It blew out the tire when I originally hit the pot hole but I just took it to my local guy to get the tire replaced. It never shook or shimmied at all. But the Benz dealership found the crack. It probably was progressively getting worse over the four months from having the tire replaced til the inspection. But these replicas have held up great otherwise.

Are honda rims Made In china?
@6thGearGarage
@6thGearGarage 4 года назад
I don't know about hondas from the last 10 years, but all older OEM honda wheels were made in japan. Aftermarket replacement/replica wheels are usually made in china, even though they look identical to the OEM honda wheel.
@mnmautoworld
@mnmautoworld 4 года назад
Yes, Honda and a lot of Japanese car wheels now are made in China. But they are pretty quality wheels, from my professional experience in wheel business they are way better quality than BMW and MB wheels. Even some Volvo wheels are made in China now since its parent company is in China
